OK the D606's are on - 3hrs to do both! Don't think I'll be in a hurry to do that again by choice LOL! Front wheel now feels real interesting on hard cornering on tarmac!
I'll try real hard to get up early enough to butter up a dozen hot cross buns for you nutters to have with your coffee!
CYA in the morning!

Okay, so got permission to do this ride at the last minute.
All set to go, and bugger, wont start. So I'm running late, hoping that the guys haven't gone without me, get to the bottom of the Wainui Hill, & who's there to greet me but Joe, Andy, and Andrew & his friends with a trailer load of bikes.
Bugger, Joe......Hope it's something minor (but it doesn't look it).
Met with the others at BP Wainui then onto Orongorongo.
Eddie, Dave & me sat & watched the fun as the guys did a loop in the hills. MarkS was heard across about 1/2 a mile 'shit that's steep', for one downhill section. Andy Mac & Jim (Balrog) dropped their bikes on that...
Funny how it was easy on Trail bikes (they did a couiple of loops & were keen for more), but a challenge on Adventure Bikes with twice the weight.
Also the challenging uphill from this morning didn't seem too bad on the way down.
After lunch we had a ride up the river trails (until we met a grumpy DoC worker).
Dave had a big off on the trail - hit an erosion hole, lost it, went about another 25 ft then headbutted a bank. He's killed his helmet, but its done its job. He also injured his back...but kept riding. Quite a bit of damage to the front of the bike.
The last photo is the guys trying to figure out where to go after the DoC worker discussion (apparently we were tresspassing).
